Scientific paper

Results of single-trailed spectrograms of the magnetic accreting white-dwarf binary 0139 - 68 are presented. The spectral resolution is approximately 2.5 A and the time resolution is 45 seconds. Line-profile changes and radial velocities are derived and described. A discussion of possible orbital velocities indicates probable masses of 0.2-0.6 solar mass for the white-dwarf primary and 0.3 solar mass for the M-star secondary. The position of the active pole is suggested. The origin of the high-velocity line components is not clear, but their behavior is similar to those in the system VV Pup.
